quote:

In the 33-second video, released by the Canadian Institute of Diversity and Inclusion (CIDI), two figures sit at the start of a luge track, clad in black Lycra with red helmets and black face masks, and suggestively sway in slow motion.

Accompanied by British 1980s electronic pop band Human League’s hit song “Don’t You want me baby”, a tagline flashes “The Games have always been a little gay. Let’s fight to keep them that way.”

While 2 man luge is certainly gay, that's a terrible thing to do to that song. We get it. There are gay people in the world. We don't need commercials that promote the lifestyle.

I read that as Germans have always been a little gay.

Why do we keep getting this homo lifestyle stuff thrown at us? I get it. There are gays in the world. They're everywhere. I don't care.

My perspective as well. What they are really saying is lets make the game more openly gay.

The next thing that's going to get thrown in our face is acceptance for pedophilia. THEY WERE BORN WITH AN ATTRACTION TO CHILDREN! HOW DARE YOU LOCK THEM UP! IT ISNT A CHOICE! HOW CAN YOU DISCRIMINATE!

I just don't see the point of throwing it in peoples faces OVER AND OVER AND OVER. When I meet a gay person, the first thing out of my mouth isn't that I'm straight.

The camel's nose is firmly entrenched under the tent. I wonder what the next cause will be.

This is such a stupid argument.

It's not stupidity. It's an unfamiliarity with a consent-based system of sexual morality as opposed to a rules based system of sexual morality.
